| Obverse description | At center, the State emblem of Israel — a menorah flanked by two olive branches — is set within an artistic arrangement of intersecting circles. The face value '1 SHEQEL' appears in the field along with the country name 'ISRAEL' rendered in three scripts: Hebrew (ישראל), Arabic (اسرائيل), and Latin. The mint year is expressed in both the Gregorian numeral '1985' and the Hebrew calendar year 'התשמ"ה', positioned along the lower portion of the design. |

| Reverse description | A stylized tree dominates the central field, its branches arranged to form a molecular lattice structure that simultaneously evokes the shape of a Star of David, symbolizing the intersection of Jewish heritage and scientific inquiry. The emblem of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities appears in the design. The legend 'SCIENTIFIC ACHIEVEMENTS IN ISRAEL' is inscribed in Latin characters, accompanied by the Hebrew equivalent 'הישגי המדע בישראל'. The overall composition is rendered in a modern, graphic artistic style appropriate to the commemorative theme. |
